Chapter 162: Zhu Sixi died violently
When Gong Xun heard this, his expression changed greatly.
He had also heard of the "Absolute Son Gu", but it was really surprising that such a thing could happen around him.
"Who comes to loosen the soil in the yard of the second lady every year?"
Gong Xun walked out the door and asked the busy maids in the courtyard.
"It's Zhu Sixi."
The maids replied.
Gong Xun has some impressions of this Zhu Sixi, not because he has been in the palace for a long time, but because he is too fat compared to a group of capable families, weighing more than 200 catties, and his height is about five feet, and there is a piece of oil on both sides of his face and nose for a long time.
But every time he saw Gong Xun, he nodded his head, he was very diligent and sleek, and there was nothing wrong with his work, although Gong Xun didn't like him in his heart, he couldn't say anything.
Gong Xun heard that it was Zhu Sixi who loosened the soil, and nodded, and a gloomy look appeared in his eyes.
This Zhu Sixi was brought into the Prime Minister's Mansion by Feng Qinglan, how could he not know! His county lord's wife, who has been sleeping in the same bed for so many years, is only now slowly discovering her true colors.
"Send Zhu Sixi for questioning."
Gong Xun said coldly.
A maid hurried out.
Gong Xun's face turned pale with anger, and he just wanted to quickly interrogate him. After all these years, Feng Qinglan has made many small moves under his nose!
Liu Xiangyun knew that this was also a risky move. Telling the matter of the Absolute Son Gu is equivalent to openly being an enemy of the Feng family, after all, the Prime Minister's Mansion will be indispensable for open and secret battles, and she is a pregnant woman, so the situation will naturally not be too optimistic.
But if you don't say it, her pregnancy has been exposed, and the Prime Minister's Mansion has many eyes, even if you tell everyone not to make a noise, you can't hide it.
It's better to let Gong Xun know about this matter, if there is really any dispute between the two in the future, Gong Xun is prepared in his heart and can help her. lest the wicked people of the Feng clan sue first.
"Everything is fate. I was not in good health a few years ago, but in case I lived, my child was not healthy, and I was even more worried. Now that I have been in better health in the past two years, and there is a miracle doctor in the house who can take care of it, and I can let you enjoy the fun of getting a child in old age, isn't it also a blessing? ”
Liu Xiangyun comforted Gong Xundao, and then pretended to frown: "It's just that, what's going on with this Zhu Sixi, I have no grudge against him in the past and no enmity in the near future, why do you want to do such a conscience-losing thing?!" I'm going to have to ask in a moment! ”
Gong Xun gritted his teeth and sneered.
"Zhu Sixi has no grievances with you, but it doesn't mean that others don't have a holiday with you. The people in this house don't want you to get pregnant, and naturally there are other people. ”
Liu Xiangyun knew it in her heart, but she still looked surprised.
"You mean...... No way? ”
"Will or not, we will know when Zhu Sixi comes to the first trial."
Gong Xun remembered that his youngest son Cheng Ze was also poisoned by the Feng family's maidservants when he was a child, but fortunately, Cheng Yun found out in time, so as not to cause a big disaster.
Now that this kind of thing has happened again in the family, both of which were done by Feng Qinglan's subordinates, it is difficult not to suspect her. Gong Xun made up his mind to find the Feng family to ask for an explanation, and he would not tolerate it.
So the two of them were talking in the room while waiting for Zhu Sixi.
After waiting for an hour, no one came, so he sent another maid to urge him.
After another half an hour, the two maids panted and said, "Master, second lady, Zhu Sixi died violently in the firewood room." ”
When Gong Xun and Liu Xiangyun rushed to the firewood room, they saw Zhu Sixi curled up in the corner of the firewood room with a hideous face, and the person was already stiff.
"The slave and maid looked for Zhu Sixi for a long time, and finally found it in the firewood room."
The first maid who ran out to find Zhu Sixi was called Liu Wu, who was brought by Liu Xiangyun's mother's family, and she was shocked to Gong Xun and Liu Xiangyun, and her face turned white with fright.
Gong Xun stared at the catkins for a long time, but he didn't see anything unusual, and he was suspicious, I don't know who leaked the news.
"Go to King Jing's Mansion and invite the eldest lady." Liu Xiangyun calmly ordered the people, so a few more family members hurriedly went out.
Gong Xun has never been very concerned about family affairs, and he also knows in his heart that his eldest daughter Yu Xi is silent, but she has a very popular ability. The eldest son protects this sister in everything, and now the second lady trusts her so much, she really neglects her on weekdays.
At this time, Yu Xi was teaching Feng Yiyang to play backgammon in the palace, the traditional Go was similar to backgammon, Feng Yiyang was very wise, and he learned it after a while, and then won three or four games in a row.
The rules set before the two play are that the winner of each game should draw a stroke on the face of the loser. When the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion went to King Jing's Mansion to invite someone, Yu Xi had already been painted by Feng Yiyang as a little flower cat. There is a circle around each of the eyes, and the cat's whiskers are painted on the side of the nose and cheeks.
"People are smart, but their gambling luck is very bad."
Feng Yiyang saw that her white skin was not painted by herself, and she didn't dare to laugh out loud, so her handsome face turned red.
"It is said that the casino is proud, and the love field is frustrated, if you dare to laugh at me, I will make you disappointed in love." Yu Xi raised his eyes and stared at Feng Yiyang threateningly, more like a little flower cat with its claws outstretched.
Feng Yiyang only lowered his head, trying not to look at her, and the smug look could be seen from the constantly shrugging shoulders.
"Is there an emergency?" Little Flower Cat raised her face and asked the people of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The prince didn't dare to make fun of the princess, and the subordinates lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at Yu Xi's face.
"There's an accident in the house, the second lady asks you to come over." The housekeepers said, just keeping their heads down and staring at the ground.
Yu Xi hurriedly pulled Feng Yiyang and was about to ride a horse to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Don't worry, I'll prepare a carriage for you." Feng Yiyang stabilized her and hurriedly asked people to prepare the carriage. He also ordered someone to wet a towel and wipe her face clean.
"It's too late, when is it?" Yu Xi thought that the carriage was slow, and he was about to turn over after leading a horse. Feng Yiyang hurriedly hugged her waist and followed, holding her with one hand and pulling the reins with the other hand to rush to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Feng Yiyang knew that Yu Xi was afraid that something would happen to Liu Xiangyun, after all, Liu Xiangyun was pregnant, and it was an extraordinary period.
This woman, who attaches great importance to love and righteousness to the extreme, looks smart and rational, but is very willing to think about others, which is one of the things he likes about her.
There are also other women who desperately show how gentle and kind they are in front of him in order to be noticed by him, but they don't treat the people around them as people in private, and he has heard a lot of this kind of thing.
And Gong Yuxi seems to be plain, but his heart is extremely clear.
She has her own scale for the distinction between relatives and distance, and the weight of this scale is not interests, nor wealth and status. It's the person's own values, whether it's worth being helped by her.
It is precisely because of this that she can really win the hearts of the people and make so many people willing to go to the trouble for her.
When he galloped to the Prime Minister's Mansion, even the men and horses were a little out of breath.
"Erniang, are you okay?" Yu Xi saw that Liu Xiangyun's face was as usual, and he stood there with a good posture, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
